KYBELLA® in Miami, FL

Even having a small amount of excess fat in the neck and chin area can create the look of a double chin, which is usually not anyone's desired appearance. The excess pockets of fat below the chin (submental area) can be caused by aging, weight fluctuations, or genetics that lead to a weaker chin and jawline for an undefined profile. Nurse practitioner Sheila Arniella is happy to offer a revolutionary technique to get rid of neck fat at Body Art Rejuvenation. KYBELLA is a new, nonsurgical option for upper neck fat. The active ingredient in KYBELLA is a synthetically made version of deoxycholic acid, which works similarly to the natural DA in the body to break down and absorb fat cells. Once it is injected beneath the chin, you can see a noticeable decrease in the volume of fat. When the fat is destroyed, the cells cannot return so you are able to enjoy your new, slim profile and defined jawline for years to come.

KYBELLA is done inside one of our treatment rooms. Sheila will typically apply a numbing ointment to the treatment area if desired after the skin has been cleansed. The procedure lasts around 15 – 20 minutes, which comprises multiple, small injections targeting the submental area. Some patients may need a single treatment to reach their desired look while other patients may need multiple injections spaced three weeks between each appointment at Body Art Rejuvenation. Ideal results following this procedure leave your neck looking sleeker and slimmer, and your neckline will be more defined.

Can KYBELLA be used to treat other areas of the body?
Currently, KYBELLA is only available for treatment of the submental area. KYBELLA has been proven to effectively minimize the look of a double chin. KYBELLA isn't approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use on any other areas of the body.

Am I eligible for a KYBELLA treatment?
There are a few factors that could make you ineligible to receive a KYBELLA treatment. You need to be over the age of 18 years old, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and cannot have an active infection in or around your neck. Before receiving treatment, you are encouraged to be open about your medical history and health concerns with our aesthetic team Miami, FL so they can determine if you can safely receive the treatment.

How many treatment sessions will I need?
During your consultation, a customized injection plan will be tailored to meet your goals. Typically, patients get between two and four KYBELLA treatments before achieving their goals. KYBELLA injections must also be spaced about one month apart. You should not get any more than six injections.

Even if everyone else in your family has to hide their hereditary double chin, it doesn't mean you have to.
